O Beloved of the gods! Having repeatedly wandered in the great forest of samsara for a long time. You have any how obtained birth (existence, as human beings. You have got unmutilated five sense-organs. You have a sportless family and a healthful state at your disposal, and wisdom of religious duty has appeared in you. Avoid therefore, association with persons having wrong beliefs and persons devoid of vows (of renunciation). Eagerly wish for the Wealth of Right Knowledge and Right Conduct. Look to the consequences of miseries to other living beings caused by carelessness. Meditate about the state of production and destruction, at every moment of all objects and think about the rarity of acquisition of the benefit of birth in Ārya kṣétra etc
Besides,
1. Why do you fearlessly maintain the fragmentary ardent longing for the insignificant pleasures of this world? Has a document of fearlessness been written to you by the God of Death himself!

2. Or, by whom has a state devoid of old age and death been given to you? or, has a place devoid of the Misery of Death etc been seen by any one?
Jain Education International
3. Or, has an elixir of life been taken with an object of attaining an Eternal State, that you have become so very indolent even for an eagerly solicited locality ?
